If you all worked at a hospital you're stance would change, believe me. nope. people have to work. Again, EASY to say when you don't work in healthcare. Well, you're not going to see hundreds of 'non-sick' folk come in and stay, so any worker at a hospital would see a lot of cases, they seem to congregate there! Can see how they'd gete biased, don't you!??! FACT, a San Diego councilman just confirmed that only SIX, count them, SIX, HEALTHY folk have died from Coved so far, OUT OF 3.2 MILLION RESIDENTS! Yeah, over 200 have died, but they all had 'underlying medical conditions'. This farce of a pandemic is unraveling fast, and in fact, has now become a political stunt. Keep you head in the sand, that'll help Joe the idiot get elected. With close to 100,000 dead, calling it a farce is no more helpful than screaming the sky is falling. The virus is real. I do agree some states are now politicizing their response. Doesn't change the fact that the virus is an active and ongoing danger for the 40-60% of the population with underlying conditions. As others have said, the truth lies somewhere in the middle. Remember we are still in the second inning here. We have a lot of this ball game to play before we get to herd immunity or a vaccine. As we reopen let's each do our individual part to try and keep things as safe as possible. The less fuel the left has to work with the better.

I read they were paying $5k per week for RN's in New York area, I guess maybe that was fake news..
I can see hospitals having to cut hours lately I have heard up to $7500/wk (that might have been Washington State). I have a couple of co-workers in NY now. Rooms are provided (at the Sheraton I believe) but they are gonna pay the exorbitant NY state income tax (12-13%???) Hospitals cut hours to med-surg nurses and other services because they would only admit the sickest COVID patients and doing no surgeries or procedures outside of emergency and trauma cases. Well, that's over 1/2 the RN employees at a facility. Most ICU's are pretty busy.

Last week Walmart here in Liquor city opened up FREE COVID TESTING!!! So the lemmings lined up with their stupid masks to get FREE TESTING FOR THE WUHAN FLU. The Mayor was just giddy with excitement as well as the PETA crowd and the fu-fu furbaby idiots. Because, wah, we should get Tested to be safe. Be safe and only come out of your hidey hole with a mask and gloves. Wah wah wah.

Why anyone would want that swab test is beyond me. When they called results this morning I thanked them for the result on the COVID test and asked them when the brain biopsy was going to be resulted. Awful test. I am still getting them weekly.

Well, that's over 1/2 the RN employees at a facility. Most ICU's are pretty busy. They are probably going to have 5 to 6.5% tax rate depending on how much they make. They can also deduct the tax from their federal tax returns up to 5 or 10 thousand dollars depending on if they file single or married.

Guess the entire World is lying to us. It's ok, carry on like it's nothing. For the people that have lost loved one's during this time I'm sorry. Yes some would have passed anyways. It's a fact of life, we die. I would imagine most of you on here yelling it's all political haven't lost a loved one. Or had a wife have to deliver a baby all alone while you sat at home or out in your car. Yes some parts of the hospital are slowwwww. Med surg, cafeteria, etc. But the ICU's, CCU's Covid wards are over run. We've had to wear the same masks for up to 5 days. Cleaning supplies are so short we're stealing from other departments. This is MY job and what I signed on for. I love helping people. I just hope it's not one of you I help next.

If you have no symptoms, why in the world do you want to purposely expose yourself to Nurse Ratchet to scape your nasal cavity? This is what these old busy bodies are doing here in Liquor City.
